Today is the first day I can actually say I feel like crud!! Tired and nauseous all day, except when I am napping. Maybe my theory about the progesterone levels and side effects was way off. I can’t imagine feeling like this all day everyday for another month…EW!
I have been having a love-hate relationship with food and cooking lately. Sometimes I feel like cooking a feast but mostly I don’t want anything to do with it. I am craving foods I shouldn’t be like Spaghetti carbonara, chocolate souffles, burritos, and bread! I definitely don’t want anything to do with poultry. unless it’s fried or has a delicious crispy skin on it. God help me! Part of the reason may be due to Friday’s dinner. Shane and I went downtown to Searsucker the baby of Brian Malarkey. We ordered short ribs braised in red wine as an appetizer, mmmm. The most delicious caesar salad with anchovies which I couldn’t eat because of the stupid pregnancy rules. Shane ordered the Sea Bass in a cherry reduction with almonds which was very good and I went with the Duck with an apricot gastrique, which was raw. Well very very very rare. By the time I was able to tell the waiter I was so over ever eating anything more. They apologized, of course and re-cooked it but it really put a bad taste in our mouths. I should have ordered the scallops.
Once more, the good news is also the bad news.
Why is it that no one ever craves raw veggies and fresh fruit!?
BTW, he/she still resembles a polliwog! 🙂
